A manhwa that will have you supporting the Main Character with Pride!
I procrastinated reading this manhwa ‘til it was last on my priority list, but when I finally picked it up, I realized I overlooked a hidden gem.
What I found most appealing is the plot and our main character. From being bedridden due to trauma to developing an UNBREAKABLE WILL that leads him down an unknown path, filled with reliable friends and a journey that encourages continuous development and growth.
The narrative bravely addresses these experiences and we get to see the remarkable results.
In any case, Ruru/Lulu the cat is awesome.
Highly recommend this hidden

This is a rare instance of a manhua drawing me in from the very first chapter.
The Reformation of the Deadbeat Noble Manhwa truly felt like a one of a kind when I discovered it during my mild pit of "I don't know what to read", and as I'm sure many avid readers are most-likely to be struck by this problem more than once, I hope my insights will help someone ease their frustration by indulging in a couple of chapters from this particular story. (smart words=better, change my mind) The First Chapter: The first chapter was of course what stood out the most when looking back as ...

It is one of the best Shonen manwhas I have seen, despite the unattractive name it is a complete underrated hidden gem
Story: 9/10 The story progresses very well even with unexpected events and leaving you with doubts about how it will progress Art: 8/10 The art is good, it doesn't need much more the truth Characters 10/10 The characters are easily the best of the manwha, each one has a very good personality and development, there are even some that have more development than the protagonist himself. I love in a few words the companions of the protagonist ...

Plus
* art is decent * story/lore is simple and straightforward. (cliche?) * easy to read. you can stop anywhere because the cliffhangers are weak and the arcs are generally tiny. * rapid pace and decent execution. hype all the way! Minus * power levels (and kinds) are all over the place with barely any structure. * The characters (especially villains) are too generic. I could predict their dialogues/expressions in my sleep. * And some characters are *really* inconsistent. Its like the authors forgot their character traits? ...

Saving this manhwa to read later because the poster isn't interesting enough but it proved me wrong. This manhwa is a hidden gem it has an adventure vibe along with friendship, rivalry, romance, and decent art.
The character: The main character is your typical weak-to-hero trope where he has a conviction and a clear goal followed by intense training. In addition, the spotlight is on point for the supporting character with each character's development conveyed nicely through their interaction that feels meaningful and adds layers to the overall narrative. The art: It's good enough for me and it's consistent throughout the story. The art is a plus ...

The Lazy Lord Masters the Sword – Manhwa Review
📖 Story – 8.5/10 The Lazy Lord Masters the Sword follows Airen Pareira, the disgraced heir of a noble family who spent his life as a lazy, unmotivated failure. But everything changes when he starts having mysterious dreams of a swordsman relentlessly training. Inspired by the dream, Airen awakens an unshakable determination to master the sword, turning his life around completely. This isn’t your typical instant OP regression story—Airen’s journey is filled with hardships, training, and character growth. His transformation from a lazy noble to a dedicated swordsman is emotional and satisfying, making the story more than just about ...

The art, main character, and story are very much fine and only slightly average-above average. However, it feels like halfway through the story the author just decided "You know what? Screw the main character. I'm making this a romance novel now" and started focusing too heavily on the side characters and these whole weird romance plots that kinda came outta nowhere and don't really progress the main plot at all. When you're reading a manwha/novel about a noble improving himself and becoming a hero, you don't wanna see 20 chapters straight of progressing a romance plot the author just felt like writing one day. The

This is a manhwa that I thought I would enjoy a lot but ended up dropping it.
Story: 4/10 The basic premise is fine, these types of stories are very common in the action/power fantasy manhwa world. However, the pacing of the chapters is dreadful and is one of the major reasons I ended up dropping it. 2ndly, there is nothing solid to look forward to in the story, it just.. progresses. Art: 6/10 The art gets the job done, and some of the character designs are good. Decent but not that amazing. Character: 4/10 All of the character writing feels forced. The side characters are cliched but in a bad ...

Having read the web novel, I started with high expectations, however despite the first few chapters hooking me, I seemed to lose interest.
The art and character are fine however the story seems a bit rushed compared to the original wn. Story: 4/10 Story is very rushed. Most arcs tend to last less than 3 chapters, often leaving out major details. Art: 7/10 Art is fine, Has more of a western feel to it but nothing other than that. ... |
